Although I’m talking about actually fit, quality women—most move away after graduating I assume.

Your logic is not making sense. If the guys are already slumming it and dating fatties...why do the guys need to work out? If the guys get in better shape, that gap now widens and guys are dating 3-4 points lower. Shouldn't you be telling the fatties to get their asses to Orange Theory?

I don’t believe that we’re a fit nation at all. But 70% of us aren’t fat. Maybe that just depends on your location if you’re only finding whales on dating apps.

I honestly don't find that surprising because American standards for what is overweight and what isn't are skewed. So many people are overweight but our society doesn't consider them to be so--even though medically, they're carrying 20-30 unnecessary pounds.

Maybe not subjectively, but statistically, it’s true. 6’0” and 185 is overweight on the BMI scale.

I'm not worried about what other folks do enough to ever think about Facebook people and their relationships. It just seems like it would be common sense if you are a single guy to maybe hit the gym a few times and put a little effort into how you look.

I mean it could very well be true for all I know. But there’s ridiculously high percentages of people that are overweight, and then there’s 70% of people being overweight.

I was just glancing through my news feed on social media and saw lots of couple from the mid 20s - early 30s posting on social media. 90% of the time, the dude was better looking then the girl. At the (1-3 month mark of the relationship), the girls were usually chubby and those who have been in a relationship for some time (6 months or more) were borderline obese.

Odd and creepy way of coming out of the closet.

-Judges men on their relative attractiveness

-catty about women who are with said men

-encourages men to work out so that they'll be more appealing


...no doubt about it. OP is a chick.

It's 71.6% of adults over the age of 20 that are overweight or obese. CDC stats and that was as of 2015-2016, it is worse now especially in minority groups.

2017 stats
stats by race and state

LA ranks 7th fatest amongst whites, 12th amongst Blacks. Minorities have much higher % overall though.

Both groups are holding pretty steady though.

I have been told by numerous international people that we date 2 points below on the 1/10 scale when it comes to girls and everywhere else, it’s either equal or even better for guys in places like Eastern Europe, South America.


Why would you be interested in their opinion on anything?

They put waste toilet paper in the trash can in the bathroom, they think ice is a delicacy, and they get punked by Muslims regularly.

Not here...most couples here the girls seem way hotter.

My GF is certainly better looking than me.

that’s because what we see as skinny is skinny fat, normal is overweight, and overweight is obese

My group of friends all date up b/c we're not pussies. But then again we all make a shite ton of money, so that probably helps.
